THINGS ONLY MY FAMILY SAYS

Reddit asked, “What’s a made up phrase only your family will understand?” Some of the responses:
– “Those little sharp things that hold your corn while you eat? Corn knobs.”
– “Safety lobsters. It’s an oven mitt.”
– “Uff da vey. Being Jewish in Wisconsin, it a combination of ‘oy vey’ and ‘uff dah’ (a Norwegian saying).”
– “When we were younger, my dad used to sneak us into drive-ins in the back of our SUV, and the code word for when we could come out was Pumpkin Pie. 20+ years later, it’s still our codeword.”
– “We called goosebumps Chilly Boogers.”
– “‘Say Hammer.’ My grandfather was choking on a piece of food and all my grandmother could think of to do was tell him to raise his hands and ‘say hammer.’ 60 years later, anytime anybody in my extended family has something go down the wrong pipe, they are told to ‘Say Hammer.'”
– “My friends and I used to joke a lot, but we needed to be serious about something we’d say ‘tea bag.'”
